Qlik Enhances Enterprise Data Journey with New Big Data Offerings

New Delhi, Sep 13th, 2018 – Strata Data Conference – Qlik® continues to execute on its mission to supply enterprise customers with end-to-end data management and analytics solutions with two new big data offerings - the latest version of the Podium Data® product and the initial release of Qlik’s Associative Big Data Index available this month. Enterprises need to unlock data’s full value to help users accelerate action and outcomes. With these latest releases, Qlik continues to aggressively streamline the enterprise data journey from raw data source to end user insights.

“Qlik is committed to improving enterprise data readiness and analytics scale,” said Mike Potter, Qlik CTO. “Delivering a new version of Podium alongside the first version of the Qlik Associative Big Data Index is a clear signal to the market: Qlik is ready to help customers drive more value from all of their data across their entire user base - whether big, small, or any combination thereof.”

“Optimizing data from raw inputs to insights is proving to be the real game-changing advantage for businesses,” said Paul Barth, Qlik’s Managing Director of Enterprise Data Management. “Untangling data, bringing higher value to data assets and making data easier to work with is at the core of our Podium product enhancements.”

The latest release of the Podium Data product contains many new features to help users derive more insights and benefit from Podium’s smart data catalog. Two key aspects, the new catalog module and intelligent rules engine, both accelerate time-to-answers for all users who rely on data.

• Intelligent Rules Engine – Based on the popular open source Drools rules management system, Podium’s code-free, customizable rules engine analyzes incoming data and takes appropriate action based on outcome. For example, this feature can be used for intelligent data identification and action on sensitive data such as personally identifiable information (PII), PCI data, and data subject to GDPR regulations. Other examples include the ability to automatically launch custom scripts or send notifications to data stewards when unusual data patterns are observed.

JavaScript Object Notation file ingestion, enhanced metadata features, and fine-grain controls for data ingest and publishing are also a part of this new release.
